Story of Consideration

A ten-year old boy went to an ice-cream shop, sat at a table, and asked the waitress, "How much is an ice-cream cone?" She said, "seventy-five cents." The body started counting the coins he had in his hand. Then asked how much a small cup of ice-cream was. The waitress impatiently replied, "sixty-five cents." The boy said, "I will have the small ice-cream cup."

The boy ate his ice-cream, paid the bill, and left. When the waitress came to pick up the empty plate, she was touched. Underneath were ten one-cent coins left as the tip. The young boy had consideration for the waitress before he ordered his ice-cream. He showed sensitivity and caring. He thought of others before himself.
